Dog Days AwayGOOD DAYS. TOGETHER.
Pembrokeshire · Wales · Town · Coast
Fishguard offers a self-catering coastal break with two different-sized town houses, then a choice between a harbour outing and the more rugged Pen Anglas headland. Pink Door at 54 has a clear one-dog policy and no unattended pets. Hamilton Lodge offers another town base but leaves detailed dog terms to direct discussion. Keep Goodwick and Lower Town geography in mind: the headland walk starts separately at Harbour Village and is not a flat stroll from every front door.

Pink Door at 54 charges £42 per dog per week or short stay, with one dog maximum. Hamilton Lodge confirms a dog welcome but requires direct confirmation of number, fee and house rules. It has no parking directly outside, so arrange unloading and nearby parking before arrival.

THE DETAILS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Pen Anglas starts at Harbour Village, Goodwick.
Hamilton Lodge has no parking immediately outside the property.
The current Visit Pembrokeshire listing says one dog is welcome, with a one-off £42 fee per dog for a week or short stay. Dogs must stay off soft furnishings and cannot be left alone in the house; bring your dog’s own bed, bowls and food.
The National Trust’s circular route is 2 miles and takes about one to two hours from the turning circle at Harbour Village, where it lists free public parking. Dogs must be on leads because cattle and ponies graze nearby; the path has sharp gradients, a stream crossing, stiles, kissing gates and rocky ground near cliff edges.
Pembrokeshire County Council’s published reopening notice describes a 500-metre boardwalk and asks dogs to be kept on leads throughout the reserve to protect wildlife. The notice dates from 2023, so check current access signs and any closure notice before making a special trip.

Goodwick Parrog West is a 700-metre seafront promenade described by the National Park Authority as having no real gradients or cross-falls. The same page advises visitors to supervise dogs and take care around the Coast Path; it is a much shorter option than Pen Anglas’s uneven, steep 2-mile route.

Hamilton Lodge’s own site identifies the property as dog-friendly, but its public page does not state a dog limit, fee or unattended-dog rule. Confirm those details directly before booking so the terms for your dates are clear.
